How we handle coloured bath resurfacing in Okus
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, with no new plumbing or tiling. A full suite is normally done in one to two days. Whether it’s a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and selling or letting a home with an old suite, we can normally put it right, on coloured shower trays, avocado, pampas and pink baths and coloured basins alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Okus
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Coloured shower trays
- Coloured basins
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Whole bathroom suites
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes one to two days for a full suite, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease everything and fix chips.
- The surface is prepared and primed.
- We spray on the new finish in white or your chosen colour.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the suite is ready.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a coloured suite for a white one means a plumber, a tiler and new taps. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Okus. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole suite
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Okus and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
